I'm Kaitlyn Zhang. I help digital products feel less like a puzzle and more like it was made to make sense. By blending research and design, I uncover what people truly need and turn those insights into experiences that simply work.


I'm curious by nature. I ask questions, test assumptions, and explore different ways to make technology more usable and accessible.
My work sits at the crossroads of design, research, and experimentation where empathy meets evidence to create products that resonate with people.
